There is a company called ROMAR that manufactures the endplates for those starters out of a better material. I would suggest trying to contact them through the Dodge Brothers Club technical advisor. John B who is mentioned in the above post can help also. The DBC is located at this address: <A HREF="http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/Pit/2672/" TARGET=_blank>http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/Pit/2672/</A>

Romar is probably a pretty good suggestion also. Here is how you can get in touch with them. You can call them and request a catalogue, it is free. The only problem I have found with them is that they are a bit pricey, however they do have some pretty good stuff, including new items.<P>Vern Barker's Romar<BR>(814) 827-7601 8-10pm ET M-F
